Board approves fee adjustments, impounds funds for litigation and ratifies DSA inspection contracts; consent items passed
Summary
The Norris School District board adopted two resolutions, impounded funds for anticipated claims, ratified four DSA inspection agreements for TK and classroom expansion projects, and approved routine consent items by voice vote.
The Norris School District board carried a set of actions with voice votes at its meeting.
Public hearing and fee adjustment: The board opened and closed a public hearing and adopted Resolution No. 24-9 to adjust alternative school facilities fees for level 2 and level 3. A district staff member said the fees saw a slight increase and provided numbers during the meeting; as stated in the meeting the level 2 fee changed "from 3.71 to 388" and the level 3 fee changed "741 to 777." The presenter said level 3 fees are only levied when state funding from the State Allocation Board is not available. The presenter did not specify units; the board approved the resolution by voice vote.
Impoundment for pending claims/litigation: The board approved Resolution No. 24-10 to impound local tax revenues in Fund 77 in anticipation of pending claims and/or litigation. The presenter said the district must impound "about 35,000 and change" this year; the board approved the resolution by voice vote.
DSA inspection services and TK/classroom expansion projects: The board ratified agreements with John A. Leach to provide Division of the State Architect (DSA) inspection services for multiple TK expansion and classroom projects, including Olive Drive TK classroom expansion (DSA 102788), Veterans Elementary TK expansion, BMAT Elementary TK expansion and the Norris Elementary classroom expansion project. A staff speaker described Leach as an experienced inspector and former architect who helps limit change-order costs. Each of the four agreements was approved by voice vote.
Consent agenda and other approvals: The consent agenda passed in a single motion and included financial warrants, the quarterly Williams uniform complaints report, an agreement with Ragsdale LSC doing business as I9 Sports, and an agreement with Color Me Mine Pottery, among other routine items. All consent items were approved by voice vote.
Motions and votes: In most cases the board used a standard "So moved. Second. All in favor? Aye. Opposed? Motion carries" voice vote. The meeting transcript records "Aye" and the chair declaring the motion carried; individual member vote tallies or named mover/second were not recorded in the transcript.
Next meeting: The board adjourned and listed its next meeting for February 12 at 5:30.
